Mia descended the stairs and happened to see Maya and ke entering the elevator to go upstairs.


    It seemed like they were aware of Dana’s presence.


    However, the familiar bag hanging on Maya’s arm stunned Mia.


    Wasn’t that the limited edition bag she saw while shopping in the mall a few days ago? It was a gift


    from


    Timothy, but she didn’t ept it.

    To her surprise, it was now in Maya’s hands.


    Did he give it to Maya?


    Mia mocked inwardly. “Oh, right. We’re divorced. It’s understandable for him to gift her luxury bags.”


    After all to Sharon, Maya and Timothy were the perfect match.


    Still it didn’t will away the frustration in Mia.


    She withdrew her gaze and recentered herself, reminding herself that she had a family that loved her;


    that she was blessed.


    She left the area without a second thought. Whoever Timothy got together with had nothing to do with


    her anymore.


    On the other hand, Maya got in Dana’s way upstairs. She taunted Dana, “Having fun ying hide–and-


    seek? You think I will never find you?”


    Dana looked away cowardly before turning to escape, but ke blocked her way. There was no way


    for


    her to get out of there.


    In the end, she pleaded with Maya, “Ms. Lane, I didn’t have a choice. The college wants me expelled,


    but I


    can’t let that happen. I’m an orphan. Someone sponsors my studies. It wasn’t easy for me to get into


    college. If I’m expelled, I’ll be done for.”


    Without a degree, a future of bing a waitress or someone of the same echelon would be awaiting


    a


    nobody like Dana.


    Her future would be ruined!


    Dana initially thought that recing Mia and bing Maya’s friend could change her life, but it


    unexpectedly brought her a great deal of trouble!


    Maya arched her brow. “That was why I gave you a chance. You’re the one who didn’t appreciate it.”


    “Ms. Lane, please help me talk to the college management. I will listen to you. I’ll do everything you


    say. I swear!”


    Maya frowned. She had actually contacted Kennedy, whose stance was firm about his decision; he


    wouldn’t revoke Dana’s expulsion.


    Yet Maya needed Dana to rece Mia.


    Maya said withposure, “Dana, you’ve vited the school rules. It’s serious. It’s a punishment for


    the deeds you did including the things you did in the past. You can’t me me. If it was only because of


    this matter, I could’ve helped you.”


    A shimmer of hope shed in Dana’s eyes. “Help me, Ms. Lane. You’re Ms. Lane. What is there that


    you


    can’t do?”


    “That is true. I’ll give you a piece of advice. If you do as I say and meet my family, it doesn’t matter if


    you


    study college or not.”


    Dana’s face fell at that. “You mean you won’t help me?”


    Her heart sank deep into the pit of her stomach. Maya’s true colors finally came to surface; she was


    merely using her!


    No matter how nice Maya sugarcoated her words, Dana had to make sure that she wouldn’t be


    expelled


    from college.


    Otherwise, her future would be ruined.
